Microsoft Surface Pro review: PC-worthy tablet nearly gets it right

 

The Surface experiment works, but it's not a kill shot to laptops just yet.

The ; fits a full ultrabook experience in a compact 10-inch tablet. Thanks to the ingenious Type and Touch covers, it offers a comfortable interface and typing experience. The clean, crisp design and sharp 1080p screen rise above the competition.

Microsoft Surface Windows 8 Pro

 

The Microsoft Surface Windows 8 Pro is the Windows 8 slate tablet to beat when you need the performance and convenience of a PC in a compact tablet form factor.

Compact. Improved UI: Things don't look "too small" in desktop mode. Comes with pressure-sensitive stylus. Works with Surface covers. Truly Windows compatible. Ultrabook components. Full 1080p HD screen. 10-finger touch screen.

Keyboard cover is an optional extra. Only one USB 3.0 port. VGA and HDMI require optional adapters.

Microsoft Surface with Windows 8 Pro: Hotter, Thicker, Faster, Louder

 

What happens when you take Surface RT and add an Intel processor and hi-res screen?

The screen is pretty ; Touch Covers and Type Covers are still good typing solutions ; The build quality remains first-rate ; Runs Windows apps with aplomb

Runs hot ; Runs loud ; Runs short ; The whole resolution scaling situation is unsatisfactory ; Metro-style apps still lacking in breadth, number, and quality
